PRR 38, MP-54, 1960
Description:
Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken near Rahway, New Jersey, on 16 January 1960. The photographer is not identified. Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad electrified passenger cars #38 and two more units whose numbers are not recorded. All are MP-54's built by American Car & Foundry. Looks to me like someone has applied some sort of field-expedient insulation to the rear-end door of car #38. ("Stoneborobranch"; #4 of 15)

"Long Island Rail Road," Page 46, 1949
Description:
Here is page seven of a ten-page article by Rae Ediger entitled "Long Island Rail Road." It was published originally in the March 1949 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 46. Photo Captions: "On a railroad as heavily trafficked as the Long Island, the number of trains to handle a given flow of passengers is a matter of vast concern, hence LIRR's enthusiastic development of the ultra-efficient double-deck coach. Inside these 132-passenger cars, you have your choice of stepping up or down; parent-Pennsylvania's shops builds them." Prominent here is LIRR #1347, an MP-70 double-deck electrified coach built in the PRR's Altoona Works about 1939..

M.U. Electrics. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad equipment in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, on 03 July 1965. Shown here (R to L) are PRR #4571 and #4533. Both were built by American Car & Foundry. #4571 is an MBP-54E3 (Baggage Car), while #4533 is an MBM-62T (Mail Car). Both look serviceable to me, but they are on their way to the Reclamation Plant in Frankstown. This photo was taken along South Juniata Street, adjacent to the PRR's Freight Station.
